I'd been happy, and I was happy still. For all to be accomplished,
for me to feel less lonely,
all that remained to hope
was that on the day of my execution
there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should
greet me with howls of execration.

pera, if you sit on a jury, know about jury nullification, you don't have to convict someone who breaks a bullshit victimless crime law no matter what some judge might say.

If you want to be dismissed so you don't have to do it, mention jury nullification.

One guy did that during jury selection when I sat on one. He got in the seat and just said "I hate these types of lawsuits and think they are pointless." He was immediately dismissed.

I'm a little surprised you wouldn't assume I knew about and loved this. Jury Nullification is critical.

I actually take jury duty incredibly seriously, it's the closest thing to "duty" for the sake of country that I believe in, at least when it comes to me. I work extremely hard to apply an unbiased, out of external context perspective and evaluate the evidence and instructions As A Juror loving Should. I could sorta go nuts about this for pages.

I sat on a murder trial in 2007 as an alternate and was absolutely furious to discover I was the only one taking notes, the only one prepared to ask questions during deliberation, the only one who didn't just assume the guy was guilty. They deliberated for less than an hour which clearly means they didn't even talk about the police bias, the flaws in the witness testimony, the weird loophole the prosecution used to call it first degree... for an objectively evil person it's weird that I give such a drat about it.

I was chosen for a jury once, figuring I'd do my civic duty by saying "not guilty" to someone who committed some nonsense crime. It ended up being a case that lasted for two+ weeks over whether a convicted child molester was safe to be let out of prison after 20 years. :eng99:
